J. Callaway Designs

About

I love creating whimsical, colourful designs that celebrate the beauty of nature and invite us to appreciate those little moments. Botanical art and smiling bees, ladybirds and small creatures, are often my main focus. I like to think of this as my signature style and I hope they bring smiles to others.

All the artwork you can see here started as a sketch on paper. Colour is added using traditional watercolour disc paints and brushes. Each design is a personal labour of love; produced with the utmost care and consideration. Final details are added by hand, often with my favourite childhood set of 72 Derwent coloured pencils.

My passion for art began very early and lead to a career in teaching Visual Arts in the state school system. This was followed by illustrated children’s books, a Diploma of Graphic Design in 2016 and Certificate III in Visual Arts in 2018.

I also freelance for small businesses to create designs that showcase their products and projects. For private commissions please email; jcallawaydesigns@gmail.com
